Tips & Recommendations
- 1Reserve group campsites 6-8 months in advance for peak season weekends, as Virginia's most popular group facilities like Turkey Run Ridge and Sherando Lake book quickly for spring and fall dates.
- 2Confirm exact capacity limits and vehicle parking restrictions when booking—some group camps limit the number of cars allowed, requiring carpooling or shuttle arrangements for larger gatherings.
- 3Designate a site coordinator to arrive early for check-in and site orientation, as group camps often have specific rules about fire locations, quiet hours, and activity boundaries that differ from family campgrounds.
- 4Bring extra tarps and rope for communal dining areas, as weather can change quickly in mountain locations—a 20x20 tarp over picnic areas transforms rainy gatherings into comfortable experiences.
